OSF OAuth Scopes API is one of 41 APIs that [OSF](https://apis.io/providers/osf/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include OAuth Scopes. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification.

OAuth scopes define specific permissions for OAuth applications and personal access tokens. Each scope indicates the permission level granted to perform actions via the OSF API, such as reading node data (`osf.nodes.read`) or modifying node data (`osf.nodes.write`). Scopes can be queried and managed through these endpoints to understand and control access levels associated with applications and tokens.
